Something I drew while chilling out at Aki-con. It's a sketch, scanned in, and then digitally colored in Photoshop. It was kind of an excuse to practice coloring, lighting and all that jazz. Still need more practice... I'm just really tried of looking at this now. Thanks to my boyfriend for his critique and input.
Just wanted to draw Yarrow (my alien character) with his shoulder bag. Satchel. Whatever you call it... just don't call it a purse. (It's a MAN purse.)
Murses always make me giggle. >_> My high school English teacher had a 'urse' and he always yelled at us, "It's a satchel! People in Europe use them!" Men and their defense of their murses. :3
The light angle is really dramatic, making his overal figure and shape just pop. Loving that textured background, as it looks more deep then just a texture...like some sort of wall in a dark alleyway. His Purse-...SATCHEL looks quite nice, and very accurate too, for some reason. And I like how you demonstrated his hood over his ears! Really comes off quite nice...and showing the dim glow of his big ol' eyeballs. Just very cool atmosphere over all.

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
